CSU High Park Fire symposium today!


It's not too late! If you want to get more information about the High Park fire or how to get involved in restoration, you can attend the High Park Fire: From Science to Action and Recovery symposium held today at Colorado State University. Hosted by CSU's Warner College of Natural Resources, the symposium started at 9 this morning and will continue throughout the day until 9:30 tonight. Held in the Lory Student Center Theater, the event is free and open to the general public. The all-day event includes presentations and speakers on impacts of the fire, perspectives on the fire and action and recovery efforts. The symposium will feature guest speakers Jim Hubbard, who is the U.S. Forest Service Deputy Chief for State and Private Forestry, Dan Jiron, who is Regional Forester of the Rocky Mountain Region, and Bill Hahnenberg, who is the Incident Commander for the Rocky Mountain Type 1 Team, among many others. It is a great opportunity to learn more and get involved, so check out the symposium agenda
